Malai Besani Paratha (Cream stuffed bread)

Malai Besani Paratha (Cream and gram flour stuffed bread)

Childhood memories are always close to our heart. My mom used to serve this paratha to me and my sister during winters and monsoon. I used to relish it a lot. I am trying to pass on this tradition as this is considered to be a rich diet for growing age and growing bones. Hope your kids will also love it...

Preparation Time :15 Min

Cooking Time : 10 Min

Ingredients :

For Dough :

2 Cup Atta (wheat flour)

1/2 Teaspoon salt

1/2 Teaspoon Ajwain seeds

Water as required for dough

For Stuffing :

11/2 Tablespoon fresh cream (you can use Amul fresh cream also)

2 Tablespoon besan (gram flour)

1 Medium size chopped onion

1 Teaspoon chopped green chillies

1 Tablespoon chopped coriander

Red chilly powder according to taste

Salt according to taste

2 Tablespoon desi ghee for cooking

Procedure :

For dough : In a bowl take atta along with salt and ajwain seeds mix it well. Now add water as required and knead the dough nicely till it is properly done. Keep it aside for 20 to 30 minutes

For stuffing : Take another bowl add fresh cream, besan, chopped onions, green chillies, coriander, salt, chilly powder and mix it well. You will get a nice mixture but make sure that your mixture is not too loose. If it is loose add besan otherwise you will have problem in preparing parantha

Divide the atta dough into 6 equal portions. Take one ball flatten it apply some ghee to it.

Place a little stuffing mixture in the centre and bring the edges together to form a ball as shown in picture

Now with the help of rolling pin flatten it

Heat tawa, place paratha over it, after 30 seconds turn it over and spread some ghee around it. Turn over again and spread some more ghee on the other side of paratha. Cook till both sides are well cooked

Serve it hot with fresh curd and pickles of your choice

Tips : cook paratha on medium flame so that it is crispy from outside and properly cooked from inside
